Hi Sarah, welcome to the forum. I have a Herbert Hill in my tree but he married a Helen Taylor. Did Herbert and Jane marry? Are you aware of any other children for them? I had a look on the LancashireBMD site but couldn't see a marriage for a Jane Burnman. I would imagine you are having a very difficult time trying to trace what are probably living people! |

Hi Sarah, I don't know if this is of much help, BUT, there is a birth on lancashirebmd for a Herbert Hill 1933 Nelson, mother's maiden name Constable. Are they his birth parents or adopted parents you are looking for? Gloria |

Sarah Hi Sarah, Could the surname be Brennan? From the Burnley Directories living at 41 Brunshaw Road, Burnley: 1941 – not at that address 1945 – A Hill 1949 – A Hill, Motor Driver 1953 – Herbert Hill 1960 – No one listed at that address 1962 – No one listed at that address Burnley Electoral Roll for 41 Brunshaw Road, Burnley 1945 – Herbert and Nellie Hill 1946 – Herbert and Nellie Hill 1947 – Herbert Hill, Gladys McDermott and John J. McDermott 1948 – Herbert Hill, Alice Cole, George Boyle and Jane Brennan, Winifred Harrison 1949 – Herbert Hill, Alice Cole, George Boyle and Jane Brennan 1951 – Herbert Hill, Alice Cole, George Boyle and Jean Brennan (it was definitely Jean on this one) 1952 – Herbert Hill, Dorothy Hill 1953 – Herbert Hill, Dorothy Hill 1954 – Herbert Hill, Dorothy Widdup 1955 – Herbert Hill, Dorothy Widdup 1956 – Herbert Hill, Dorothy Widdup I am wondering if he was the Herbert Hill who died Burnley in 1958 aged 47 ? I didn`t get the chance to look at anything else, so when I go again I will have a look to see if there is an obituary in the paper. At least you can then rule it out or not as the case may be. Mo |

Hello Mo, Thats great that you have done that Yes looking at the name i think it is brennan. Its strange that 1950 it doesnt say who lived there, also its strange that jane lived there and then a jean brennan. That would be great if you could do that. Thanks so much Sarah

Hi, It was my mistake that I omitted the 1950 - I didn`t realise until I got back home - sorry, but as they were identical in 1949 and 1951 I would imagine that it was the same. As for the Jane/Jean it could just have been a typing error on the Electoral Roll. Mo |
